Strange again to be back here saying farewell to another year…but so it goes. I decided against putting together a year in favorites, because frankly…it all resembles last year’s list, so definitely check that out. This year I’ll be ringing in 2012 home, watching Bridesmaid’s, baking, cooking and appreciating what a rollercoaster of a year it’s been.

I think like a bajillion other folks, this year began with more than a handful of promises to do better, feel better and accomplish more than in previous years…but typically something else happens. Something more resembling many of life’s lessons that you’d give your right leg to ignore and never repeat. This is me vouching for me….but even if it is hard to count all of 2011 as Joy, I’d love to embrace it as the year I learned the most, grew intentionally…and experienced the beauty of being present in every moment.

No resolutions in this corner except the continuous goal of living with purpose. I am grateful for this here space to share with you guys my jests and stories on this journey. Incredibly humbled that you read, support, converse, e-mail, fan, like…whatevs. I’m grateful for you, inspired by your continuous kind words…and aim to break down a few more walls to bring you more awesome.

If you are closing this year out with confetti & a BANG…Salut! If you will be joyously saddled between a sofa and blankets noshing on cupcakes & dip…Cheers! I’ll be right there with you…but let’s make plans to meet back here again next year;)

I think this is the best end-of-year post I have read so far. I am joining you in the effort to continue to live with purpose. I think that is the best any of us should strive to do. It covers all the bases without putting too much pressure on the situation. Whatever I tackle, whether I succeed or fail, I do it with purpose.April recently posted..Merry Christmas
